Mazda using wind turbine Electric Double Layer Capacitors to improve fuel efficiency.
Mazda is working on a new braking system called i-ELOOP. It captures energy from the vehicle's inertia and produces an electric charge from the alternator just as the driver lets off the gas pedal. This energy is captured quickly in a Electric Double Layer Capacitor, which are commonly found in wind turbines. The system will debut on the 2014 Mazda6 and is part of the company's Skyactiv fuel-economy boosting efforts.

2013 Mazda CX-9 World Premiere at Australian International Motor Show
Mazda Motor Corporation will hold the world premiere of the refreshed Mazda CX-9 crossover SUV at the 2012 Australian International Motor Show.
Held in Sydney, the 2012 Australian International Motor Show begins October 18 and runs through to October 28, 2012. The 2013 CX-9 will be launched in Australia later this year.
Mazda CX-9 is a crossover sport-utility SUV featuring a distinctive sporty appearance, a high-quality cabin, the flexibility of three-rows, and Mazda's exciting "Zoom-Zoom" driving dynamics. The current CX-9 has sold over 210,000 units* in 74 countries, including North America and Australia, as Mazda's range-topping SUV.
The 2013 Mazda CX-9 carries over the utility and dynamic driving performance of the current model while adopting Mazda's "KODO - Soul of Motion" design theme at the front and rear for even sportier styling and stronger presence. Enhancements in craftsmanship and interior design further the feeling of quality and refinement. With regard to equipment, the infotainment system features the latest audio, navigation and speech-recognition systems based on the Human Machine Interface (HMI) which is intuitive to use. In addition, advanced active-safety features, such as Forward Obstruction Warning System, Lane Departure Warning System, and High Beam Control System, help drivers recognize and avoid danger.
As with the current model, the 2013 CX-9 features the MZI 3.7-liter V6 engine and a six-speed automatic transmission for powerful and refined driving pleasure.
The all-new Mazda6 (known as Atenza in Japan) will also make its Australian premiere in Sydney. It is the second of Mazda's new generation of products that adopt the full range of SKYACTIV technologies and the KODO - Soul of Motion design theme. It is the first model to be equipped with Mazda's unique brake energy regeneration system, i-ELOOP.
The 2012 Australian International Motor Show will open to the press on October 18, and to the public from October 19 to 28, 2012. Mazda will hold its press conference on the morning of Thursday, October 18 from 9:12 to 9:22 local time.

We just received a 5 out of 5 customer rating on DealerRater
"Easily the most painless car buying experience ever! Contacted Jason about the car I was looking for (2012 Mazda3 iTouring, Black, Automatic) and he quickly sent back the best price of any of the dealerships I had contacted in San Diego county. Could have tried to get some local dealerships to match his bid but he and Carlos were so easy and straightforward to deal with it was worth the 40 mile drive. And Katie made the payment & financing process quick and painless. The whole process from the time I arrived to the time I had the keys was about 30 minutes! Definitely the best way to buy a car if you know exactly what you're looking for."-rkeeley

The 2013 Mazda CX-5 has a style and feel that appeals
Compact crossover utility vehicles are my favorite because they marry the function of an SUV with the handling and fuel economy of a small sedan or station wagon. Plus, these mini-CUVs actually have enough cargo space to accommodate the needs of most buyers, with the exception of those that need a third seat for carpooling.
Mazda’s all-new CX-5 has fresh styling with a new design theme that is called KODO, Soul of Motion. It is a welcome departure from Mazda’s grinning face grille.
The CX-5 reflects the company’s fun-to-drive philosophy by showcasing sharp and responsive handling while returning excellent fuel economy.
The CX-5 comes in Sport, Touring and Grand Touring models, in either front-wheel or all-wheel drive. Prices start at $20,695 for the Sport, $23,895 for the Touring and $27,045 for the Grand Touring. The Sport can be equipped with a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission, but the Touring and Grand Touring are only available with the automatic. I drove an all-wheel-drive Grand Touring and its base price was $28,295.
For Midwestern winters, I would choose all-wheel drive over front-wheel drive, but buyers in southern climes will be happy with front-wheel drive.
The CX-5 uses what Mazda calls Skyactiv Technology to achieve fuel economy that is rated at 26 miles per gallon in the city and 35 on the highway for the front-wheel-drive version with the six-speed manual transmission. The highway number is mighty impressive for a vehicle with such a tall and boxy profile.
All-wheel-drive models with the automatic transmission are rated at 25 city and 31 highway, which is still quite good compared to competitors such as the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Hyundai Santa Fe.
Skyactiv is more of a strategy than a technology. Mazda uses high-strength, lightweight steel for the chassis to keep weight down, and that means a small, highly efficient engine can be used. The one used in the CX-5 is a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder that delivers 155 horsepower. It has an aluminum block, dual overhead cams, direct fuel injection, variable cam timing and a high compression ratio. It runs on regular fuel.
A 2.0-liter engine is small for a vehicle this size, and it shows when you load the vehicle with people or need a strong burst of power for climbing hills or entering the freeway. The hot-selling Honda CR-V has 30 more horsepower, and the Toyota RAV4 has 24 more. Clearly, Mazda chose fuel economy over performance, and that may be wise in a time of expensive gasoline.
The CX-5 makes driving actually fun because it has such nice handling. It acquits itself at least as well as, and sometimes better than, the Mazda3, and that’s not an easy task for a vehicle that is relatively tall.
Ride quality is an excellent combination of comfort and control. The electronic power steering has a nice feel, and body roll is held in check nicely during cornering. The tight suspension that yields good handling is not so firm that it makes the ride harsh or choppy.
Compact crossovers are about function and versatility, and that means the interior is a key to how useful the vehicle is over a long period of time. The CX-5 shines in its ability to carry various-sized cargo, be comfortable and offer popular convenience items.
The Grand Touring test car was equipped with the technology package that included GPS navigation, satellite radio, high-intensity headlights and keyless ignition. Other standard features included stability control, heated front seats, Bose audio system, Bluetooth connectivity and dual-zone climate control.
The leather-trimmed sport seats had excellent lateral support and were quite comfortable.
One or both sides of the rear seat can be folded.
Other safety features include anti-lock brakes with brake assist, traction control and front, side and side-curtain airbags.
Price
The base price of the test car was $28,295. Options included navigation, high-intensity headlights, satellite radio, keyless ignition and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. The sticker price was $30,415.
Warranty
Three years or 36,000 miles with a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty.
